The Nordia Incident - 7. Summation

When the board convened after lunch the gallery was smaller. The Senators staffs were not present.

Jennings pounded his gavel and called the proceedings to order.

Captain Scott stood and said, “Many tall tales have been told about the Nordia Incident.

“In one of those tales an Alliance Navy Officer boarded a corporate chartered freighter in the Nordia System for no apparent reason and seized the ship.

“In another one of those tall tales, one interstellar corporation used uniformed Alliance personnel to trump up trouble against one of its competitors.

“Today you have seen the facts and evidence of the case and, it is my contention that none of these tales are true.

“The facts in this case and the evidence which has brought by the personnel involved, who have all testified under oath, are substantive. Now it is up to the board to decide the pertinent facts in this case and its outcome.

“We are here to decide two questions. First—did Commander Glenn act properly?

“Our second question is, do we have sufficient cause and evidence to forward this case to the Criminal Investigations Division of the Alliance Bureau of Investigation for further investigation and possible legal action?

“I respectfully request that the board take all of the testimony and evidence into consideration and render a decision.”
